Strong communication and collaboration skills

Preferred:

5+ years of experience in MEP engineering, construction engineering, or related field
Experience supporting commercial or complex construction projects
Familiarity with construction management processes and building systems coordination
Experience assisting with system design evaluation, commissioning, and constructability review

Why This Role Stands Out:

Opportunity to work on large-scale construction projects involving complex building systems
Exposure to preconstruction planning, engineering design, and field construction activities
Collaborative environment with experienced engineering and construction professionals
Competitive compensation and strong career growth opportunities within construction engineering
